Oil was first successfully drilled in 1859. The discovery of oil, however, was much earlier than the drilling in 1859. Colonel Edwin Drake is recognized as the first to drill oil. Once oil was founded, scientists began experimenting with its use. Its most practical use, however, would be later founded. Edwin Drake developed and added to technology by creating the first successful drill. Edwin Drake drilled through an iron pipe that limited water seepage and expedited flow.
Oil is used as heating and lighting. It is most used and known for its use in the combustion engine.
The history for the combustion engine is vast and dates back to Da Vinci's time. Over hundreds of years, scientists have added to the development of the combustion engine. The first to create the practical combustion engine was Nikalous Otto. Nickalous Otto, in 1876, created the four-stroke cycle for the engine. The four-stroke cycle is now used in all automobiles. Karl Benz, in 1879, was the first to place the four-stroke cycle engine into an autombile.
The combustion engine uses fuel and air, pressed in a confined space, where the end result is a hot gas with high pressure.
